Navajo Fry Bread Recipe
Ingredients Needed
-
2 cups oil for frying
-
4 cups all-purpose flour
-
3 tablespoons baking powder
-
2 teaspoons salt
-
2 ½ cups warm milk
Instructions
-
Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pan to 375°F (190°C).
-
In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add milk to form a soft dough. Divide the dough into 18 balls, each about 2 inches in diameter. Flatten or roll each ball into ½-inch thick discs, then make a small hole in the center of each to help them stay flat while frying.
-
Carefully lower about 3 or 4 dough rounds at a time into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown and bubbly on the surface, approximately 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer the fried bread to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Repeat with the remaining dough rounds.
Editor's Note
The amount of salt has been reduced in response to user feedback. The original recipe required 2 tablespoons.
We’ve estimated the nutritional value of the oil used in frying, assuming a retention rate of 10% post-cooking. This value may vary depending on factors like frying time, temperature, ingredient density, and the specific oil used.
